Why need to root for Android market app??

[revlen]

I'm just curious --- why can the G Tablet not access the Android Market app and work on the Android market without rooting?

Because the whole legality of running the Android market on non-phones is a grey area and tablet producers do not want to get in trouble.

Thanks for the reply --- so if I can ask a follow-up ---- then how does "rooting" (I don't really know what that means) make it possible to access the market? I thought maybe it was a software issue.

Rooting gives you SuperUser access to the tablet. You can install custom ROM's and be able to do pretty much what ever you want to.
